The WWDC is one of the premier tech events there is in the world but this is usually for the Apple fanatics. The one event which also doubles as the birth-land of innovations.

Apple’s WWDC event on Monday was more of a software oriented than hardware. The iOS 10 was unveiled with some new upgrades.

The new operating system will have an upgraded enhanced lockscreen with more advanced options for the notification area. You can do so much more without unlocking your iPhone with the new widgets that show details weather updates, music playback options and more message actions.

Siri, a computer programme that works as an intelligent personal assistant on the iPhone has also been opened to developers as Apple seek to integrate Siri into third-party apps.

The messaging app on iPhones called iMessage was given a huge revamp, an upgrade that makes Whatsapp and Facebook Messenger look so 1957.

Web links will now preview inside the message app with access to watching videos from a link inside the app without being redirected.

The ‘Bubble effects’ makes text in iMessage become bigger or smaller depending on how you want to communicate your message.

Apple also gave the opportunity to blur a sent message in cases of delivering surprises like those three magical words that could make the world come crashing down: “I am broke”.

Recipient will have to swipe over the text and viola … surprise message delivered.

Another big upgrade was the Apple Music. From the presentation to the new interface was great. But mostly the presentation.

Bozoma Saint John just stole the show

Apple Music executive Bozoma Saint John did not get the recognition as senior executives Eddy Cue to Craig Gederighi who are constant show runners at the annual developer conference.

But she surely didn’t disappointed.

The comments on social media said it all with fans calling for her to be the new CEO of Apple. Tim Cook are you reading?

BuzzFeed named Bozoma Saint John as the “coolest person to ever go onstage at an Apple event.” So cool, right?

Saint John, head of marketing for Apple Music was the first woman of colour to present at an Apple keynote event.

The inclusion of Saint John was not that a surprise considering the quest from industries to integrate in all their endeavours.

So who was this beautiful black woman who took the shine off the usual white dads normally seen on the Apple stage?

The accent couldn’t have given her out but the swag was just so cool. Her comfort in the presentation took over the entire auditorium with developers who have never sung in their entire lives feeling they had some rapping talents.

Despite this fact, it was still all about Bozoma Saint John as she kept letting the developers know it was still about her. Gosh! She’s so cool.
